The four hundred and fifty-ninth chapter actually built a new mountain road
"Shall we set off?"
Chujiu squinted his eyes and stared at the black stone platform. It was interesting. This time he wanted to test whether he was as good as the old man when he was young.
"You are twenty years old now. My uncle must have been in his teens when he took this step."
Seeing the weird smile on Chujiu's face, I slapped him casually. The things in my mind were completely different from those of normal people. I still had time to think about these things at this time.
Chujiu laughed at him. His uncle always said that he was so stupid. When he was the same age as Chujiu, his conduct was much higher than that of Chujiu.
"I almost forgot something important. Let me give you a diamond shield first."
On the ninth day of the lunar month, I pulled out a piece of talisman paper from a small cloth bag, and wrote down a sum of five hundred yuan owed to him in my account. If it weren't for me, there would be no need to waste this talisman paper.
"Didn't we agree on two hundred yuan before?"
I forgot which mission it was, because Wan Li and I are two mortals, Chujiu had to use talismans to bless us with some spells to avoid being disturbed by ghosts.
Wan Li couldn't stand Chujiu's attitude of treating him like a weakling, so he waved the talisman with his big hand and pretended that he had bought it for himself.
Then Chujiu started to quote a price with a shameless face. If the talismans were used in future missions, they would be charged two hundred per piece according to the cost, and then he defrauded me and Wan Li of one hundred yuan each.
As for why it is said to be a lie, it is because in the subsequent missions, the number of talismans used by Chujiu increased significantly.
Talisman papers with various functions appeared one after another, and almost all of them were tailor-made for me and Wan Li.
Wan Li and I, who were completely blind to this knowledge, could only obediently put money into Chujiu's hands again and again, looking at his face that deserved a beating.
I clearly remember that when my uncle and grandpa left that year, my uncle drew the talisman for half the night, leaving only a few dozen in total for the ninth day of the lunar month.
In the past three years, Wan Li and I have used more talismans than this number on the ninth day of the lunar month.
I often suspect that Chujiu bought a piece of yellow paper outside and randomly drew some similar talisman paper to fool us, but I don't have any evidence.
"Of course it's different. This talisman paper is very high-end. I don't have many of them myself. Of course it's more expensive."
Chu Jiu had a wicked smile on his face. Adding in the debt he owed himself before, the total was six thousand six hundred yuan.
"The God of Heavenly Thunder, the God of Earthly Thunder, the God of Dharma Protectors, the God of Defending the Dao, the Supreme Laojun issues orders, and the lower realms protect the Dharma and save all sentient beings. I ask you, Lord Sanqing, to turn your light into dust, protect my disciples, rescue my disciples, and circle the hall with magic thunder.
The golden universe is pure and free, the highest purity is the highest purity, the highest purity is the highest purity, the highest purity is the highest purity, urgent laws and decrees, edict!"
A golden halo clearly appeared around me and Xiaoyu. The halo circled us from head to toe and then disappeared.
It seems that Chujiu has finally become a conscientious businessman this time, and he is honest and honest.
I emphasized to them over and over again that they must follow my pace and never step into the wrong position.
It wasn't until Chujiu and Xiaoyu gritted their teeth and rolled their eyes at the same time to beat me that I finally believed that they heard what I said.
Standing in front of the stone platform, I took a long breath and suppressed the nervousness in my heart. I had no idea whether I would be safe and sound when I stepped on the stone platform.
But at this time, I had no other choice but to grit my teeth and raise my left foot to step on the stone platform. Even if something strange happened, I believe Chujiu and Xiaoyu would notice it soon.
I breathed a sigh of relief, and there was nothing strange except a sense of solidity under my feet. I turned around to remind the two of them to follow my footsteps, and then stepped out with my right foot.
I walked to the eighth stone platform in one breath, glanced at Chujiu behind me, and then quickly stepped onto the ninth stone platform.
When my footsteps landed, Chujiu and Xiaoyu also landed on the ninth section of the stone platform.
We looked at each other, which was completely different from the uncle's story. In the story, there should be a dog spirit on the stone platform.
"Hey, maybe the dog spirit has dissipated. This is not a good thing. Guo Guo, continue."
Half an hour later, we were standing on the 72nd section of the stone platform safe and sound. Chujiu muttered that maybe the uncle's stories were all lies, and there was no danger at all on this stone platform.
None of us noticed that in the woods ten meters away from us, a giant python that was about to become a dragon was quietly hovering on a tree root and staring at us with a disgusted expression.
"Guo Guo, I want to give the next section of stone platform a try."
Chujiu firmly believed that there was no danger in the Soul-raising Stone Staircase. Our journey up there was no different from walking on the ordinary stone stairway.
Just when Xiaoyu wanted to remind Chujiu not to cause trouble, Chujiu had already stepped on the stone platform with one foot.
"Hammer~"
Chujiu shouted and hurriedly stepped back from the stone platform. At a glance, he saw dense crowds of ghosts rushing toward him. Fortunately, he was well prepared and did not get lost in the formation in the soul-raising stone.
The two of us drove behind Section 72 Stone. Xiao Yu looked back at the woods in the distance, frowning in confusion. Not far from us, a powerful aura loomed.
When I stepped onto the last stone platform, my head suddenly began to hurt violently. The feeling was very similar to the dragon soul I saw in Anhui.
"roll!"
The sound of Chujiu shouting was accompanied by a piece of white powder that suddenly appeared in the air. The pressure suddenly disappeared. I held my head and jumped to the dirt road at the end of the stone platform.
There were slight beads of sweat on Xiaoyu and Chujiu's heads. It looked like they weren't feeling very well just now.
"Hammer~ Guo Guo, look over there."
We stood on a dirt road more than three meters wide, and Chujiu pointed at the rugged and winding mountain road under our feet, extending all the way to the foot of the mountain.
There are also traces left by tools on the wall near the mountain. It seems that the road was successfully built no more than three years ago.
There were clear horse hoof prints on the ground. On Chujiu, we ran to the cliff. A fork in the road led directly to the place where we rested before.
It seems that this soul-nourishing stone staircase has been abandoned by the ancient Miao Village for a long time.
From where we are on the mountainside, all we can see is a circle of stone walls at the top of the mountain.
"Oh, these old dogs really know how to enjoy themselves. The village is built just like the farm in the movie."
Chu Jiu curled his lips, and asked if he could build a city wall to surround himself in this place where birds don't poop, why not directly connect it to the Great Wall.
"Let's go! The fun has just begun."
I pointed to the mountain road in front of me. It would take at least half an hour to reach the village at the top of the mountain.
Away from the check-in road at the top of the mountain, we have already seen the huge city gate of the ancient Miao village.
Yes, it is indeed a city gate. The three-meter-high city wall is less than half the height of the city gate.
Looking from a distance, there are guard towers built on both sides of the majestic city gate. On each guard tower, you can see black shadows moving back and forth.
